Sounds more like the shanks than the yips. The yips occur when your hands flinch uncontrollably at impact. Sounds like you’re hitting the hosel with the ball.

Several things I will do to avoid the shanks. I make sure it’s not a primarily arm swing, by focusing on rotating my sternum back, then sternum through as I hit the ball. For a quick fix on the course, I’ll try to hit the ball with the toe of the club. When I do that, I aim right of the target and play for a slight hook.

I would agree, it feels like the hosel is hitting the ball. I just hit a few this morning in back yard with no problem.
